Familiarization Courses

       This post deals with the post-training of a Marine Engineer, after the main training. One is needed to complete the basic familiarization courses before going on a ship. This is essential for Dangerous Cargoes carrying ship, viz. Oil Tanker, Chemical Tanker, Gas Tanker.

There are 3 main courses:
1. Oil Tanker Familiarization Course
2. Chemical Tanker Familiarization Course
3. Liquefied Gas Tanker Familiarization Course

       These courses are needed to be completed before going on the respective ship. These deal with the safety of the ship & a short introduction to them. The main aim is to get familiarized with the emergencies & danger on-board these sips.

       On completing these courses, one will get certificate of that course, which one has to get it endorsed from the MMD.

    Sir. I am a student of b.tech final year (Electrical and Electronics) and I want to join as an E.T.O. Can you shred light on few following points
    1. Does the market still have enough openings
    2. Does any govt. institution has course for E.T.O.
    3. Does institutes like Great Eastern or Anglo Eastern have any other advantages (or disadvantages) over institute without their own fleet other than training services
    4. Are we on our own for training in institutes without their own fleet
    5. Is it possible to switch from Electo Technical Officer to Class 4 Engg. through MEO 4 or any other course (i heard one such course named OOW)

    Finally the most important one

    6. how much cigarettes and liquor is generally allotted to a person ;)
